Being the best version of yourself.

I first heard the phrase, “I’m going to science the hell out of this” on the excellentAstronomy Cast podcast.

Well, if you can use the “science” noun like a verb, what’s stopping one from using a proper noun (“John Coltrane”) like a verb? Nothing.

John Coltrane created one the best records of the Twentieth Century, “Blue Train”, back in 1957. So “Coltrane” symbolizes man at his best, not unlike how the 1969 Moon Landing does, or Beethoven’s Ninth.

Which begs the following two questions

1. When is man at his best, exactly? and 2. Why isn’t he there more often?

Great post. Yes, why not? This is what God wants for us. To be the best version of ourselves. Not sure its a place we go back and forth from… I believe its life’s journey to become the best version of ourselves. A little more each day. When we fall or take a step back, we need to “John Coltrane” our way back forward! Thanks for your great posts.
